If you find yourself without the proper protection from the SoCal sun, set your Waze destination right for Fashion Island. Why? Ray-Ban, one of the biggest names in eyewear, has opened up its very first West Coast shop at the seaside shopping center, giving shoppers a spot to experience the brand in its entirety, from iconic frames like the Wayfarer, Clubmaster and Top Gun aviators to optical frames.

The Newport Beach store follows in the footsteps of Ray-Ban’s Soho flagship in New York City, which also features space for an art gallery and live-music venue. While the smaller 481-square-foot Fashion Island store might not have those particular features, it does have enough space to house the brand’s entire offerings, including classic frames alongside trendier options, like colorful flash lenses and fashion-forward remixes of the line’s classic frames.

The Ray-Ban store takes the place of the Optical Shop of Aspen – Sun, which moved its inventory to its sister store, the Optical Shop of Aspen. And while it may seem like a surprise that it took this long to get a Ray-Ban boutique, the line is widely available in stores everywhere, including Nordstrom, Bloomingdale’s, Macy’s and more. So, why shop the brand’s own boutique? Exclusives, naturally. Check often for frames you won’t find anywhere else.

Ray-Ban is located at 843 Newport Center Drive, at Fashion Island, in Newport Beach. For more information, visit www.ray-ban.com/usa.
